Green Passports are still valid up to it’s expiration date!

There have been a lot of inquiries that the Department of Foreign Affairs received from OFW’s regarding the old green passport. Since the new machine readable passports are being issued right now and the old green passports are being phased out, they are worried that the green passport will only be valid up to 2010.

The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) on Thursday announced that green passports are still valid until their expiration date and there is no truth to the rumor at all.

    Yes you can still use it in coming to the but if you are going out of the country ask the embassy of the country if they will still allow you back if your passport will expire in less than 6 months.
